Divides in News Verification

The influence of exercise adherence on peace of mind among Chinese college students
Introduction Exercising adherence constitutes a pivotal approach for college students to maintain physical well-being, while peace of mind serves as a crucial indicator of their psychological health. However, few previous studies have delved into the relationship between these two variables. Our study endeavors to investigate the association between the exercise adherence and the peace of mind of college students. Methods The Exercise Adherence Q…
The “populist imbecile” versus the “heartless shrew”
This study content analyzes the news coverage of two major presidential candidates—one populist challenger, the other female incumbent—in the 2020 Taiwan election. A nation-wide survey of voters and their newspaper uses was also utilized to verify the association between partisan news reliance and candidate evaluations. Based on the concept of partisan press, the study confirms that the coverage is highly polarizing and that it includes more hors…
Strengthening mental health research outcomes through genuine partnerships with young people with lived or living experience
BACKGROUND: Despite increasing support for stakeholder inclusion in research, there is limited evaluative research to guide safe (i.e., youth-friendly) and meaningful (i.e., non-tokenistic) partnerships with young people with lived experience of mental ill-health in research. This paper describes a pilot evaluation and iterative design of a Youth Lived Experience Working Group (LEWG) protocol that was established by the Youth Mental Health and Te…
The Emergence of Surveillance Culture
This study addresses how Facebook privacy-management openness (how comfortable Facebook users are sharing personal information) and perceived Facebook networks are interactively related to acceptance of online government surveillance and subsequent online political expression. Drawing on a nationally representative sample of Taiwanese, results indicate that while Facebook privacy-management openness is directly and positively associated with onli…
Linking Facebook User Types With Civic Participation
The rise of social media has coincided with the emergence of an expressive citizenship model that emphasizes the role of expression in networked environments centering on personal interests. Yet relatively little is known about how civic participation might develop from daily, general social media use. Drawing on communication infrastructure theory, this study uses two-wave survey data from Taiwan to investigate which types of Facebook users are …
Examining Government Dialogic Orientation in Social Media Strategies, Outcomes, and Perceived Effectiveness
Despite the growing list of literature on governmental social media use, little is known about how different social media message strategies facilitate different types of engagement outcomes (i.e., likes, shares, or comments) and the factors that influence perceived effectiveness of social media use. Drawing on the dialogic communication framework, this study captures these aspects and analyzes data from a public organization in Taiwan, including…
How Types of Facebook Users Approach News Verification in the Mobile Media Age
Because social media have become a primary means by which fake news is received and disseminated, verifying the accuracy of such news has become an increasingly critical practice for individual users. Drawing on the dual-information-processing model, this study uses two-wave panel survey data collected in Taiwan to investigate users’ verification processes. Results reveal three user-types based on motivation for Facebook use—omnivores, entertainm…
Mapping the two levels of digital divide
Older adults have increasingly adopted Internet and social network sites (SNSs), but little communication scholarship has explored systematic differences in access within this population. Using a nationally representative sample of Americans over the age of 50 years from the 2012 Health and Retirement Study, we examine Internet access (N = 18,851) and SNS adoption patterns (N = 869) among this sample and explore how these patterns vary by age. Re…
The relationships that matter
An increasing number of middle-aged and older Americans are using social network sites (SNSs), but little research has addressed how SNS use is associated with social wellbeing outcomes in this population. Using a nationally representative sample of 1,620 Americans older than 50 from the 2012 Health and Retirement Study (HRS), we examine the relationship between older adults’ SNS use and social wellbeing associated with non-kin and kin relations …
